C. Stephen Layman earned his PhD from the University of California, Los Angeles. He is the author of The Shape of the Good (1991), The Power of Logic (1999), and Letters to Doubting Thomas: A Case for the Existence of God (2007).

"In this fine book, Layman discusses and affirms the Trinity, incarnation, and atonement with great clarity and intelligence. He knows the literature, both classical and contemporary; he knows the scriptures; and he proposes clever and fascinating arguments of his own. I recommend this book with great enthusiasm." - Stephen T. Davis, Claremont McKenna College, USA "Never abandoning the mystery within the doctrines, Layman nonetheless clarifies some of what these doctrines do not teach-in fact cannot teach. His work here is incisive and deeply revealing." - Cornelius Plantinga, Jr., co-editor of Trinity, Incarnation, and Atonement: Philosophical and Theological Essays "Layman puts forth a novel, relational theory of atonement, a kenotic christology, and a social Trinity. He gives readers much to ponder, while providing them tools with which to process such important ideas!" - Marilyn McCord Adams, Rutgers University, USA "The atoning work of Christ, the incarnation of the Son of God, and the Trinity lie at the heart of Christian faith and theology. Layman offers intriguing proposals on each of these topics. This book will help those who want to understand the coherence of these central Christian teachings." - Ronald Feenstra, Calvin Theological Seminary, USA
